DESCRIPTION
This gun is designed for light-duty spray-
ing—specifically for working with small
compressors in workshops, homes,
farms, schools, etc.
Gun is non-bleeder type, for use only
with a pressure feed metal cup directly
attached to it using an air pressure not
over 40 PSI (2.7 kgs/cm2).
This gun can be converted to bleeder
type by exchanging parts (23) and (16).
It can be used with internal mix cap at 40
PSI maximum pressure or with external
mix cap at 25 PSI maximum pressure.
CLEANING
Unscrew cup a little without removing it
from gun. Hold a clean cloth over air cap
(10 or 12). Pull trigger (19) and air pres-
sure will force material back into cup.
Remove cup (15) from gun body. Empty
material from cup and add a small quan-
tity of suitable clean solvent. Replace
cup on gun and spray in usual manner
until clear solvent appears and gun is
thoroughly clean.
Remove cup from gun body again and
clean the gasket (13) of the cup lid.
Loosen and remove the air cap (10 or 12)
and clean it with a soft brush.
Gasket (13) should be cleaned with a
solvent-soaked cloth. Let it dry before
reinstalling in gun body.
Use a brush with solvent for clean-
ing inside the cup lid. Wipe gun
outside with a solvent-soaked cloth.
LUBRICATION
At the end of each day’s use, place a
drop of light oil at trigger bearing pin
(18) and on fluid needle packing (22).
To avoid damage to threads, use
proper tools. We suggest you use
the WR-103 multiple wrench.

Toxic
Materials
Solvent and coatings can be
highly flammable or combusti-
ble, especially when sprayed.
During cleaning and flushing,
solvents can be forcefully
expelled from fluid and air pas-
sages. Some solvents can cause
eye injury.
Certain materials may be harm-
ful if inhaled, or if there is
contact with the skin.
Halogenated hydrocarbon sol-
vents – for example methylene
chloride and 1, 1, 1,
Trichloroethane can chemically
react with aluminum. The
chemical reaction caused by
these solvents reacting with
aluminum can become violent
and lead to an equipment
explosion.
Adequate exhaust must be provid-
ed to keep air free of accumula-
tions of flammable vapors.
Smoking must never be allowed in
the spray area.
Fire extinguishing equipment must
be present in the spray area.
Wear eye protection.
Follow the requirements of the
Material Safety Data sheet supplied
by your coating material manufac-
turer. Adequate exhaust must be
provided to keep the air free of
accumulations of toxic materials.
Use a mask or respirator whenever
there is a chance if inhaling
sprayed materials. The mask must
be compatible with the material
being sprayed and its concentra-
tion. Equipment must be as pre-
scribed by an industrial hygienist
or safety expert and be NIOSH
approved.
This gun is made of aluminum
and must NOT be used with any
materials containing these solvents.
Check all equipment items before
use and make sure they can also
be used safely with these solvents.
Read the label or data sheet for
the material you intend to spray.
If in doubt as to whether or not a
coating or cleaning material is
compatible, contact your material
supplier.
CAuTION
To prevent damage to cup, do not use
